April 22nd every year marks the start of Earth Day, a day that is celebrated annually to raise awareness about our home planet and how we can save it from being damaged. 1.

1. Green-up your home

This is one of the most common things that people do whenever Earth Day rolls around, that is, switch off(關(guān)閉) their lights. 2. Conserve(節(jié)約) energy by switching off all power or electricity points whenever they are not in use. In addition, take out all the plugs from plug points even after switching them off.

2. 3.

Cars, being the greatest source of air pollution, can be left at home this weekend. 4. Other greener choices are carpooling, riding a bike or you can also walk if you want a healthier choice and if your workplace is not that far away from your home.

3. Be a little dirty

No, we don’t mean it ‘that way’. We simply mean to say, don’t take a bath. Yes, conservation of water is super essential. A day or two without a bath won’t harm you, but it will certainly do a lot of good for our planet. A daily shower isn’t a matter of health; it’s a matter of comfort. 5.

The future of our planet is in your hands!

A. Started in the year 1970, Earth Day is now celebrated in more than 190 countries each year.

B. Showering every day can wash away the natural oils that our skin and hair need.

to live in.

D. Traveling via public transport is the better choice.

E. Leave your cars at home.

F. Below, we have made a list of things you can do to celebrate Earth Day.

G. However, this is not something you should do just for a day or for only an hour.

Saturday was my husband’s birthday, but we spent most of the time in the car. We were driving to Phoenix for the weekend to celebrate his birthday and see the Warriors play the Suns.

My husband is a lucky man. Not only has he lived to see another birthday, but he doesn’t mind driving 200 miles to see an NBA basketball game.

In the car, his cellphone kept ringing with birthday greetings from family and friends. He put them all on the speakerphone so he could drive with both hands and I could listen in even though it wasn’t my birthday.

Meanwhile, on the CD player, the Reverend AL Green began to sing Love and Happiness. A little good music makes a bad road better.

Four hours later, we checked into hotel, got dinner and sat out a rooftop feeling glad to be alive.

We had a great weekend—we ate too much, slept too little and the Warriors, well, they lost. But still, it was worth the drive.

On the way home, I started thinking about birthdays. In our family, we celebrate four in January, four in February, and all the others throughout the year. Mine is next week.

I felt lucky, like my husband, I will get cards and calls and maybe a few videos. I don’t need presents any more. When you’ve seen as many birthdays as I have seen, the only gift you truly want is to see one more.

Birthdays are the mile markers on the road of life. They tell us how far we have come, but not how far we have gone.

Life is a journey more than a destination. What matters is whom we choose as traveling companions, and how often we get to sit back and enjoy the ride.

1.What helps to make their long journey drive to Phoenix better?

A. The phone calls from their friends.

B. The music played on their CD player.

C. The beautiful view along the road.

D. The desire to celebrate a nice birthday.

2.What kind of birthday gift does the author really want?

A. A wish to live another year.

B. Calls and cards from friends.

C. A live NBA game

D. Videos from friends and family.

3.What is the major lesson that the author took from the journey?

A. People should learn to appreciate life together with their loved ones.

B. Taking a long drive is a great way to celebrate a birthday.

C. A meaningful life is like a journey with a clear destination.

D. People shouldn’t rest on what they have but try to make new achievements.

4.What could be the best title for this passage?

A. My lucky Husband

B. Driving to See a Basketball Game

C. Mile Markers on the Road of Life

D. A birthday journey

A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem.

First, employers should take the responsibility for their retried employees. To make this possible, a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose. But when a company must take life long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs.

Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual. This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.

In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly. This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions. Furthermore, some institutions should be created for senior citizens, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unfortunately , as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly viable answer. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly, particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.

One further solution is that the government or social organizations establish some workplaces especially for the elderly where they are independent.

To sum up, all these options have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A. The problem faced by the old in society.

B. Why we should take responsibility for the old.

C. How we can improve the lives of the old.

D. Where the old can go to get their pensions.

2.According to the passage, how can the government help to improve the lives of retired people?

A. Set aside some profits to help people with problems after they retire

B. Increase saving levels of people during their working years

C. Increase the discounts for food and transport for the old

D. Make available pensions for those who have retired

3.The underlined word “viable” most probably means ____.

A. impossible B. practical

C. useful D. successful

4.What can be concluded from the passage?

A. Taking care of the old is mainly an issue of money

B. Employers should allow their workers to retire at a later age

C. Becoming independent should be the goal of most old people

D. There is no single solution to the problem of the old
